This gas is colorless and odorless, and can cause death if inhaled. The engine of this equipment requires an adequate free flow of cooling air. Never operate this equipment in any enclosed or narrow area where free flow of the air is restricted. If the air flow is restricted it will cause injury to people and property and serious damage to the equipment or engine. WARNING DO NOT place hands or fingers inside engine compartment when engine is running. Never operate the engine with heat shields or guards removed. Keep fingers, hands hair and clothing away from all moving parts to prevent injury. DO NOT remove the radiator cap while the engine is hot. High pressure boiling water will gush out of the radiator and severely scald any persons in the general area of the generator. DO NOT remove the coolant drain plug while the engine is hot. Hot coolant will gush out of the coolant tank and severely scald any persons in the general area of the generator. DO NOT remove the engine oil drain plug while the engine is hot. Hot oil will gush out of the oil tank and severely scald any persons in the general area of the generator. CAUTION Never touch the hot exhaust manifold, muffler or cylinder. Allow these parts to cool before servicing equipment. NOTICE Never run engine without an air filter or with a dirty air filter. Severe engine damage may occur. Service air filter frequently to prevent engine malfunction. Never tamper with the factory settings of the engine or engine governor. Damage to the engine or equipment can result if operating in speed ranges above the maximum allowable. Wet stacking is a common problem with diesel engines which are operated for extended periods with light or no load applied. When a diesel engine operates without sufficient load (less than 40% of the rated output), it will not operate at its optimum temperature. This will allow unburned fuel to accumulate in the exhaust system, which can foul the fuel injectors, engine valves and exhaust system, including turbochargers, and reduce the operating performance. In order for a diesel engine to operate at peak efficiency, it must be able to provide fuel and air in the proper ratio and at a high enough engine temperature for the engine to completely burn all of the fuel. Wet stacking does not usually cause any permanent damage and can be alleviated if additional load is applied to relieve the condition. It can reduce the system performance and increase maintenance. Applying an increasing load over a period of time until the excess fuel is burned off and the system capacity is reached usually can repair the condition. This can take several hours to burn off the accumulated unburned fuel. State Health Safety Codes and Public Resources Codes specify that in certain locations, spark arresters must be used on internal combustion engines that use hydrocarbon fuels. A spark arrester is a device designed to prevent accidental discharge of sparks or flames from the engine exhaust. Spark arresters are qualified and rated by the United States Forest Service for this purpose. In order to comply with local laws regarding spark arresters, consult the engine distributor or the local Health and Safety Administrator. page 8 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Safety Information FUel SaFetY DANGER DO NOT start the engine near spilled fuel or combustible fluids. Diesel fuel is extremely flammable and its vapors can cause an explosion if ignited. Make sure the hitch and coupling of the towing vehicle are rated equal to, or greater than the trailer “gross vehicle weight rating.” alWaYS inspect the hitch and coupling for wear. Never tow a trailer with defective hitches, couplings, chains, etc. alWaYS refuel in a well-ventilated area, away from sparks and open flames. Check the tire air pressure on both towing vehicle and trailer. Trailer tires should be inflated to 50 psi cold. Also check the tire tread wear on both vehicles. alWaYS use extreme caution when working with flammable liquids. alWaYS make sure the trailer is equipped with a safety chain. DO NOT fill the fuel tank while the engine is running or hot. alWaYS properly attach trailer’s safety chains to towing vehicle. DO NOT overfill tank, since spilled fuel could ignite if it comes into contact with hot engine parts or sparks from the ignition system. alWaYS make sure the vehicle and trailer directional, backup, brake and trailer lights are connected and working properly. Store fuel in appropriate containers, in well-ventilated areas and away from sparks and flames. DOT Requirements include the following: Never use fuel as a cleaning agent. DO NOT smoke around or near the equipment. Fire or explosion could result from fuel vapors or if fuel is spilled on a hot engine. TOWING SAFETY CAUTION Check with your local county or state safety towing regulations, in addition to meeting Department of Transportation (DOT) Safety Towing Regulations, before towing your generator. Refer to MQ Power trailer manual for additional safety information. In order to reduce the possibility of an accident while transporting the generator on public roads, alWaYS make sure the trailer that supports the generator and the towing vehicle are mechanically sound and in good operating condition. alWaYS shutdown engine before transporting •Connectandtestelectricbrakeoperation. • Secure portable power cables in cable tray with tie wraps. The maximum speed for highway towing is 55 mph unless posted otherwise. Recommended off-road towing is not to exceed 15 mph or less depending on type of terrain. Avoid sudden stops and starts. This can cause skidding, or jack-knifing. Smooth, gradual starts and stops will improve towing. Avoid sharp turns to prevent rolling. Trailer should be adjusted to a level position at all times when towing. Raise and lock trailer wheel stand in up position when towing. Place chock blocks underneath wheel to prevent rolling while parked. Place support blocks underneath the trailer’s bumper to prevent tipping while parked. Use the trailer’s swivel jack to adjust the trailer height to a level position while parked. DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) — page 9 Safety Information eleCtrICal SaFetY DANGER DO NOT touch output terminals during operation.

Typical Generator Grounding Application page 14 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Installation Outdoor Installation Generator Grounding Install the generator in a area that is free of debris, bystanders, and overhead obstructions. Make sure the generator is on secure level ground so that it cannot slide or shift around. Also install the generator in a manner so that the exhaust will not be discharged in the direction of nearby homes. To guard against electrical shock and possible damage to the equipment, it is important to provide a good EARTH ground. The installation site must be relatively free from moisture and dust. All electrical equipment should be protected from excessive moisture. Failure to do will result in deterioration of the insulation and will result in short circuits and grounding. Foreign materials such as dust, sand, lint and abrasive materials have a tendency to cause excessive wear to engine and alternator parts. CAUTION Pay close attention to ventilation when operating the generator inside tunnels and caves. The engine exhaust contains noxious elements. Engine exhaust must be routed to a ventilated area. Indoor Installation Exhaust gases from diesel engines are extremely poisonous. Whenever an engine is installed indoors the exhaust fumes must be vented to the outside. The engine should be installed at least two feet from any outside wall. Using an exhaust pipe which is too long or too small can cause excessive back pressure which will cause the engine to heat excessively and possibly burn the valves. Article 250 (Grounding) of the National Electrical Code (NEC) provides guide lines for proper grounding and specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical. NEC articles 250-64(b) and 250-66 set the following grounding requirements: 1. Use one of the following wire types to connect the generator to earth ground. a. Copper - 10 AWG (5.3 mm2) b. Aluminum - 8 AWG (8.4 mm2) 2. When grounding the generator (Figure 2) connect the ground cable between the lock washer and the nut on the generator and tighten the nut fully. Connect the other end of the ground cable to earth ground. 3. NEC article 250-52(c) specifies that the earth ground rod should be buried a minimum of 8 ft. into the ground. NOTICE When connecting the generator to any buildings electrical system ALWAYS consult with a licensed electrician. Mounting The generator must be mounted on a solid foundation (such as concrete) and set firmly on the foundation to isolate vibration of the generator when it is running. The generator must set at least 6 inches above the floor or grade level (in accordance to NFPA 110, Chapter 5-4.1). DO NOT remove the metal skids on the bottom of the generator. They are to resist damage to the bottom of the generator and to maintain alignment. DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) — page 15 General Information Generator Open Delta Excitation System This MQ Power Model generator (Figure 3) is a high quality portable (requires a trailer for transport) power source for telecom sites, lighting facilities, power tools, submersible pumps and other industrial and construction machinery. This generator is equipped with the state of the art “OpenDelta” excitation system. The open delta system consist of an electrically independent winding wound among stationary windings of the AC output section. There are four connections of the open delta A, B, C and D. During steady state loads, the power from the voltage regulator is supplied from the parallel connections of A to B, A to D, and C to D. These three phases of the voltage input to the voltage regulator are then rectified and are the excitation current for the exciter section. When a heavy load, such as a motor starting or a short circuit occurs, the automatic voltage regulator (AVR) switches the configuration of the open delta to the series connection of B to C. This has the effect of adding the voltages of each phase to provide higher excitation to the exciter section and thus better voltage response during the application of heavy loads. The connections of the AVR to the AC output windings are for sensing only. No power is required from these windings. The open-delta design provides virtually unlimited excitation current, offering maximum motor starting capabilities. The excitation does not have a “fixed ceiling” and responds according the demands of the required load. Engine Operating Panel The “Engine Operating Panel” is provided with the following: Tachometer Water Temperature Gauge Warning Lamp Pre-Heat Lamp Oil Pressure Gauge Charging Ammeter Gauge Fuel Level Gauge Fuel Leak Detection Lamp Panel Light/Panel Light Switch ECU Controller Engine Speed Switch Warning Lamp (Diagnostic Lamp) Generator Control Panel The “Generator Control Panel” is provided with the following: Frequency Meter (Hz) AC Ammeter (Amps) AC Voltmeter (Volts) Ammeter Change-Over Switch Voltmeter Change-Over Switch Voltage Regulator 3-Pole, 350 amp Main Circuit Breaker “Control Box” (located behind the Gen. Control Panel) •Automatic Voltage Regulator •Current Transformer •Over-Current Relay •Starter Relay •Voltage Selector Switch •Diagnostic Switch Output Terminal Panel The “Output Terminal Panel” is provided with the following: Three 120/240V output receptacles (CS-6369), 50A Three auxiliary circuit breakers, 50A Two 120V output receptacles (GFCI), 20A Two GFCI circuit breakers, 20A Five output terminal lugs (3Ø power) Low Coolant Level Switch Battery Charger (Optional) Jacket Water Heater Camlock Connector (Option) 600 VAC Output Auto-Transformer (Option) Engine This generator is powered by a 4 cylinder, water cooled, direct injection, turbocharged ISUZU 4HK1X diesel engine. This engine is designed to meet every performance requirement for the generator. Reference Table 2 for engine specifications. In keeping with MQ Power’s policy of constantly improving its products, the specifications quoted herein are subject to change without prior notice. Electric Governor System The electric governor system controls the RPMs of the engine. When the engine demand increases or decreases, the governor system regulates the frequency variation to ±.25%. Extension Cables When electric power is to be provided to various tools or loads at some distance from the generator, extension cords are normally used. Cables should be sized to allow for distance in length and amperage so that the voltage drop between the generator and point of use (load) is held to a minimum. Use the cable selection chart (Table 6) as a guide for selecting proper extension cable size. page 16 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Major Components Table 4.

Main Circuit Breaker—This three-pole, 350A main breaker is provided to protect the U,V, and W Output Terminal Lugs from overload. 2. Voltage Regulator Control — Allows ±15% manual adjustment of the generator’s output voltage. Located behind the generator control panel is the Generator Control Box. This box contains some of the necessary electronic components required to make the generator function. The Control Box is equipped with the following major components: Over-Current Relay 3. Ammeter Change-Over Switch — This switch allows the AC ammeter to indicate the current flowing to the load connected to any phase of the output terminals, or to be switched off. This switch does not effect the generator output in any fashion, it is for current reading only. Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) 4. Voltmeter Change-Over Switch — This switch allows the AC voltmeter to indicate phase to phase voltage between any two phases of the output terminals or to be switched off. Main Circuit Breaker 5. Frequency Meter — Indicates the output frequency in hertz (Hz). Normally 60 Hz. 6. AC Ammeter — Indicates the amount of current the load is drawing from the generator per leg selected by the ammeter phase-selector switch. 7. AC Voltmeter — Indicates the output voltage present at the U,V, and W Output Terminal Lugs. Starter Relay Current Transformer Voltage Selector Switch NOTICE Remember the overcurrent relay monitors the current flowing from the U,V, and W Output Terminal Lugs to the load. In the event of a short circuit or over current condition, it will automatically trip the 350 amp main breaker. To restore power to the Output Terminal Panel, press the reset button on the overcurrent relay and place the main circuit breaker in the closed position (ON). page 18 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Notes DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) — page 19 ENGINE OPERATING PANEL Figure 5. Engine Operating Panel page 20 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) ENGINE OPERATING PANEL and all major faults will shutdown the generator. During cranking cycle, the ECU will attempt to crank the engine for 10 seconds before disengaging. The definitions below describe the controls and functions of the Engine Operating Panel (Figure 5). 1. Panel Light — Normally used in dark areas or at night time. When activated, panel lights will illuminate. When the generator is not in use be sure to turn the panel light switch to the OFF position. If the engine does not engage (start) by the third attempt, the engine will be shutdown by the engine controller’s Over Crank Protection mode. If the engine engages at a speed (RPM's) that is not safe, the controller will shutdown the engine by initializing the Over Speed Protection mode. Also the engine controller will shut down the engine in the event of low oil pressure, high coolant temperature, low coolant level, and loss of magnetic pickup. These conditions can be observed by monitoring the LED status indicators on the front of the controller module. 2. Panel Light Switch — When activated will turn on control panel light. 3. Preheat Lamp — As the engine cranks, this lamp will illuminate to indicate automatic preheating of the engine glow plugs. When the lamp turns off, this indicates that the preheat cycle is complete and the engine will start automatically. 4. Warning Lamp (Diagnostic Lamp) — When lit indicates a that a failure has occurred in the engine control system. 5. Fuel Leak Detection Lamp — This lamp will illuminate when a leak in the fuel tank containment enclosure is detected. 6. Engine Speed Switch — This switch controls the speed of the engine (low/high). A. MPEC Control Switch — This switch controls the running of the unit. If this switch is set to the OFF/ RESET position, the unit will not run. When this switch is set to the manual position, the generator will start immediately. 8. Water Temperature Gauge — During normal operation this gauge be should read between 167°~203°F (75° ~95°C). If the generator is to be connected to a building’s AC power source via an automatic transfer switch (isolation), place the switch in the AUTO position. In this position, should an outage occur, the automatic transfer switch (ATS) will start the generator automatically via the generator’s auto-start contacts connected to the ATS’s start contacts. Please refer to your ATS installation manual for further instructions for the correct installation of the auto-start contacts of the generator to the ATS. 9.

General Inspection Prior to each use, the generator should be cleaned and inspected for deficiencies. Check for loose, missing or damaged nuts, bolts or other fasteners. Also check for fuel, oil, and coolant leaks. Use Table 14 as a general maintenance guideline. Engine Side, refer to the Engine Instruction Manual. Air Cleaner Every 250 hours: Remove air cleaner element (Figure 60) and clean the heavy duty paper element with light spray of compressed air. Replace the air cleaner as needed. Air Cleaner with Dust Indicator This indicator (Figure 60) is attached to the air cleaner. When the air cleaner element is clogged, air intake restriction becomes greater and the dust indicator signal shows RED meaning the element needs changing or service. After changing the air element, press the dust indicator button to reset the indicator. Figure 60. Air Cleaner/Indicator NOTICE The air filter should not be changed until the indicator reads “RED”. Dispose of old air filter. It may not be cleaned or reused. page 38 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Maintenance If the engine is operating in very dusty or dry grass conditions, a clogged air cleaner will result. This can lead to a loss of power, excessive carbon buildup in the combustion chamber and high fuel consumption. Change air cleaner more frequently if these conditions exists. Fuel Addition Add diesel fuel (the grade may vary according to season and locations). Removing Water from the Fuel Tank After prolonged use, water and other impurities accumulate in the bottom of the tank. Occasionally inspect the fuel tank for water contamination and drain the contents if required. During cold weather, the more empty volume inside the tank, the easier it is for water to condense. This can be reduced by keeping the tank full with diesel fuel. Cleaning Inside the Fuel Tank If necessary, drain the fuel inside the fuel tank completely. Using a spray washer (Figure 61) wash out any deposits or debris that have accumulated inside the fuel tank. Fuel Tank Inspection In addition to cleaning the fuel tank, the following components should be inspected for wear: Rubber Suspension — look for signs of wear or deformity due to contact with oil. Replace the rubber suspension if necessary. Fuel Hoses — inspect nylon and rubber hoses for signs of wear, deterioration and hardening. Fuel Tank Lining — inspect the fuel tank lining for signs of excessive amounts of oil or other foreign matter. Replacing Fuel Filter Replace the fuel filter cartridge with new one every 500 hours or so. Loosen the drain plug at the lower top of the fuel filter. Drain the fuel in the fuel body together with the mixed water. DO NOT spill the fuel during disassembly. Vent any air Air Removal If air enters the fuel injection system of a diesel engine, starting becomes impossible. After running out of fuel, or after disassembling the fuel system, bleed the system according to the following procedure. See the ISUZU Engine Manual for details. To restart after running out of fuel, turn the switch to the “ON” position for 15-30 seconds. Try again, if needed. Figure 61. Fuel Tank Cleaning DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) — page 39 Maintenance Check Oil Level Radiator Cleaning Check the crankcase oil level prior to each use, or when the fuel tank is filled. Insufficient oil may cause severe damage to the engine. Make sure the generator is level. The oil level must be between the two notches on the dipstick as shown in Figure 31. The radiator (Figure 62) should be sprayed (cleaned) with a high pressure washer when excessive amounts of dirt and debris have accumulated on the cooling fins or tube. When using a high pressure washer, stand at least 5 feet (1.5 meters) away from the radiator to prevent damage to the fins and tube. Replacing Oil Filter Remove the old oil filter. Apply a film of oil to the gasket on the new oil filter. Install the new oil filter. After the oil cartridge has been replaced, the engine oil will drop slightly. Run the engine for a while and check for leaks before adding more oil if needed. Clean excessive oil from engine. Flushing Out Radiator and Replacing Coolant Open both cocks located at the crankcase side and at the lower part of the radiator and drain coolant. Open the radiator cap while draining. Remove the overflow tank and drain. Check hoses for softening and kinks. Check clamps for signs of leakage. Figure 62. Radiator Cleaning Generator Storage For long term storage of the generator the following is recommended: Tighten both cocks and replace the overflow tank. Drain the fuel tank completely. Treat with a fuel stabilizer if necessary. Replace with coolant as recommended by the engine manufacturer. Completely drain the oil from the crankcase and refill if necessary with fresh oil. Close radiator cap tightly. Clean the entire generator, internal and external. Flush the radiator by running clean tap water through radiator until signs of rust and dirt are removed. DO NOT clean radiator core with any objects, such as a screwdriver. Cover the generating set and store in a clean, dry place. WARNING Allow engine to cool when flushing out radiator. Flushing the radiator while hot could cause serious burns from water or steam. Disconnect the battery. Make sure engine coolant is at proper level. If generator is mounted on a trailer, jack trailer up and place on blocks so tires do not touch the ground or block and completely remove the tires. page 40 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Maintenance Jacket Water Heater and Internal Battery Charger 120 VAC Input Receptacles (OPTIONAL) This generator can be optionally equipped with two 120 VAC, 20 amp input receptacles located on the output terminal panel. The purpose of these receptacles is to provide power via commercial power to the jacket water heater and internal battery charger. These receptacles will ONLY function when commercial power has been supplied to them (Figure 63). To apply commercial power to these receptacles, a power cord of adequate size will be required (See Table 6). When using the generator in hot climates there is no reason to apply power to jacket water heater. However, if the generator will be used in cold climates it is always a good idea to apply power to the jacket water heater at all times. To apply power to the jacket water heater simply apply power to the jacket water heater receptacle via commercial power using an power cord of adequate size. If the generator will be used daily, the battery should normally not require charging. If the generator will be idle (not used) for long periods of time, apply power to the battery charger receptacle via commercial power using an power cord of adequate size. NOTICE To ensure adequate starting capability, always have power applied to the generator's internal battery charger..

Trailer Brakes 6. Replace the adjusting-hole cover. 7. Repeat the above procedure on all brakes. 8. Lower the trailer to the ground. Properly functioning brake shoes and drums are essential to ensure safety. The brakes should be inspected the first 200 miles of operation. This will allow the brake shoes and drums to seat properly. After the first 200 mile interval, inspect the brakes every 3,000 miles. If driving over rough terrain, inspect the brakes more frequently. Check the fluid level in the master cylinder reservoir at least every three months. If you tow your trailer an average of 1,000 miles per month in a hot and dry environment, you must check the brake fluid level once a month. The brake fluid reservoir is located on the tongue of the trailer. Always fill with clean, uncontaminated DOT 4 brake fluid. hydraulic Brakes Figure 64 below displays the major hydraulic brake components that will require inspection and maintenance. Please inspect these components as required using steps 1 through 6 as referenced in the “Manually Adjusting The Brakes” section on this page. See Table 1 for Hydraulic Brake Troubleshooting. If your trailer has hydraulic brakes, they function the same way the surge brakes do on your tow vehicle. The hydraulic braking system must be inspected at least as often as the brakes on the tow vehicle, but no less than once per year. This inspection includes an assessment of the condition and proper operation of the wheel cylinders, brake shoes, brake drums and hubs. Manually Adjusting the Brakes Most axles are fitted with a brake mechanism that will adjust the brakes during a hard stop. However, some braking systems are not automatically adjusted by hard stopping. These brakes require manual adjustment. The following steps apply to adjust most manually adjustable brakes. 1. Jack up the trailer and secure it on adequate capacity jackstands. 2. Be sure the wheel and brake drum rotate freely. 3. Remove the adjusting-hole cover from the adjusting slot on the bottom of the brake backing plate. 4. With a screwdriver or standard adjusting tool, rotate the starwheel of the adjuster assembly to expand the brake shoes. Adjust the brake shoes out until the pressure of the linings against the drum makes the wheel very difficult to turn. Note: Your trailer maybe equipped with drop spindle axles. See axle manual for your axle type. You will need a modified adjusting tool for adjusting the brakes in these axles. With drop spindle axles, a modified adjusting tool with about an 80 degree angle should be used. Figure 64. Hydraulic Brake Components Hydraulic Brake Actuator The hydraulic brake actuator (Figure 65) is the mechanism that activates the trailer’s brake system. This actuator changes fluid power into mechanical power. Therefore, the fluid level must be checked frequently to assure that the brakes function properly. HYDRAULIC BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR 5. Rotate the starwheel in the opposite direction until the wheel turns freely with a slight drag. Figure 65. Hydraulic Brake Actuator page 42 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Trailer Maintenance ADJUSTABLE CHANNEL WARNING Failure to maintain proper fluid level in the actuator may result in loss of braking action which could cause severe property damage, injury or death. Periodically check the actuator mounting fasteners for damage or loosening. Inspect the actuator for worn or damaged parts. As you are towing your trailer, be aware of any changes in braking quality. This could be an early warning of brake or actuator malfunction and requires immediate attention. Consult a certified brake specialist to make necessary adjustment or repairs. Table 15.

Adjustable Channel Your trailer may be equipped with an adjustable channel (Figure 66) that allows the coupler to be raised or lowered to a desired height. Periodically check the channel bolts for damage or loosening. NOTICE When replacing channel mounting hardware (nuts, bolts and washers), NEVER substitute substandard hardware. Pay close attention to bolt length and grade. ALWAYS use manufacturer's recommended parts when replacing channel mounting hardware. 5/8" X 11" X 5" BOLT 2" or 2-5/16" BALL COUPLER ADJUSTABLE CHANNEL 5/8" NYLOC 5/8" FLAT NUT WASHER 5/8" X 11" X 5" BOLT 3" PINTLE EYE RING 5/8" FLAT WASHER 5/8" NYLOC NUT Figure 66. Adjustable Channel Wheel Bearings Wheel bearings (Figure 67) must be inspected and lubricated once a year or 12,000 miles to insure safe operation of your trailer. If trailer wheel bearings are immersed in water, they must be replaced. DANGER If trailer wheels are under water for a long period of time, wheel bearings may fail. If this is the case, service wheel bearings immediately. The possibility exists of the wheels falling off causing equipment damage and severe bodily harm even death! If the trailer has not been used for an extended amount of time, have the bearings inspected and packed more frequently, at least every six months and prior to use. Follow the steps below to disassemble the wheel hub and service the wheel bearings. See Figure 67.

Wheel Hub Components DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) — page 43 Trailer Maintenance After removing the dust cap, cotter pin, spindle nut and spindle washer, remove the hub to inspect the bearings for wear and damage. Replace bearings that have flat spots on rollers, broken roller cages, rust or pitting. Always replace bearings and cups in sets. The inner and outer bearings are to be replaced at the same time. DANGER Improper weld repair will lead to early failure of the trailer structure and can cause serious injury or death. DO NOT repair cracked or broken welds unless you have a certified welder perform the repair. If not, have the welds repaired by your dealer. Replace seals that have nicks, tears or wear. Lubricate the bearings with a high quality EP-2 automotive wheel bearing grease. Wheel Hub Adjustment Every time the wheel hub is removed and the bearings are reassembled, follow the steps below to check the wheel bearings for free running and adjust. Turn the hub slowly, by hand, while tightening the spindle nut until you can no longer turn the hub by hand. Loosen the spindle nut just until you are able to turn it (the spindle nut) by hand. Do not turn the hub while the spindle nut is loose. WARNING If the trailer is involved in an accident, have it inspected immediately by qualified personnel. In addition, the trailer should be inspected annually for signs of wear or deformations. Leaf Suspension The leaf suspension springs and associated components (Figure 68) should be visually inspected every 6,000 miles for signs of excessive wear, elongation of bolt holes, and loosening of fasteners. Replace all damaged parts (suspension) immediately. SHACKLE SUPPORT IS WELDED HANGER SUPPORT TO FRAME IS WELDED TO FRAME HANGER SUPPORT SHACKLE NUT NUT Install a new cotter pin through the spindle nut and axle. Check the adjustments.

The possibility exists of the trailer falling thus causing equipment damage and severe bodily harm even death! DANGER HANGER SUPPORT BOLT TIE PLATE AXLE SHACKLE BOLT U-BOLT LOCKING NUT Figure 68. Leaf Suspension Components DANGER When performing trailer inspection and maintenance activities, you must jack up the trailer using jacks and jackstands. Worn or broken suspension parts can cause loss of control, damage to equipment and severe bodily injury, even death! When jacking and using jackstands, place them so as to clear wiring, brake lines, and suspension parts (i.e., springs, torsion bars). Place jacks and jackstands inside of the perimeter strip on the supporting structure to which the axles are attached. Check suspension regularly. page 44 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Trailer guidelines The following guidelines are intended to assist the operator in the operation and handling of a trailer. Shift your automatic transmission into a lower gear for city driving. Safety precautions should be followed at all times when operating a trailer. Failure to read, understand and follow the safety guidelines could result in injury to yourself and others. Loss of control of the trailer or tow vehicle can result in death or serious injury. alWaYS use lower gears for climbing and descending grades. CommoN CaUSeS For loSS oF traIler Driving too fast for the conditions (maximum speed when towing a trailer is 55 mph). Overloading the trailer or loading the trailer unevenly. Trailer improperly coupled to the hitch. No braking on trailer. Not maintaining proper tire pressure. Not keeping lug nuts tight. Not properly maintaining the trailer structure. Ensure machine is towed level to tow vehicle. traIler toWINg gUIDelINeS Recheck the load tiedowns to make sure the load will not shift during towing. Before towing, check coupling, safety chain, safety brake, tires, wheels and lights. Check the lug nuts or bolts for tightness. Check coupler tightness after towing 50 miles. Use your mirrors to verify that you have room to change lanes or pull into traffic. Use your turn signals well in advance. Allow plenty of stopping space for your trailer and tow vehicle. Allow plenty of stopping space for your trailer and tow vehicle. DO NOT drive so fast that the trailer begins to sway due to speed. Allow plenty of room for passing. A rule of thumb is that the passing distance with a trailer is 4 times the passing distance without the trailer. DO NOT ride the brakes while descending grades, they may get so hot that they stop working. Then you will potentially have a runaway tow vehicle and trailer. To conserve fuel, don’t use full throttle to climb a hill. Instead, build speed on the approach. Slow down for bumps in the road. Take your foot off the brake when crossing the bump. DO NOT brake while in a curve unless absolutely necessary. Instead, slow down before you enter the curve and power through the curve. This way, the towing vehicle remains in charge. DO NOT apply the brakes to correct extreme trailer swaying. Continued pulling of the trailer, and even slight acceleration, will provide a stabilizing force. Anticipate the trailer “swaying.” Swaying is the trailer reaction to the air pressure wave caused by passing trucks and buses. Continued pulling of the trailer provides a stabilizing force to correct swaying. DO NOT apply the brakes to correct trailer swaying. Use lower gear when driving down steep or long grades. Use the engine and transmission as a brake. Do not ride the brakes, as they can overheat and become ineffective. Be aware of your trailer height, especially when approaching roofed areas and around trees. Make regular stops, about once each hour. Confirm that: •Coupler is secure to the hitch and is locked. •Electrical connectors are secure. •There is appropriate slack in the safety chains. •There is appropriate slack in the breakaway switch pullpin cable. •Tires are not visibly low on pressure. DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) — page 45 Trailer guidelines DrIvINg CoNDItIoNS When towing a trailer, you will have decreased acceleration, increased stopping distance, and increased turning radius (which means you must make wider turns to keep from hitting curbs, vehicles, and anything else that is on the inside corner). In addition, you will need a longer distance to pass, due to slower acceleration and increased length. Be alert for slippery conditions. You are more likely to be affected by slippery road surfaces when driving a tow vehicle with a trailer, than driving a tow vehicle without a trailer. Check rearview mirrors frequently to observe the trailer and traffic. Never drive faster than what is safe. WARNING Driving too fast for severe road conditions can result in loss of control and cause death or serious injury. Decrease your speed as road, weather, and lighting conditions deteriorate. Always check for local trailer tow speed limits in your area. WARNING Do not transport people on the trailer. The transport of people puts their lives at risk and may be illegal. CoUplINg to the toW vehICle Follow all of the safety precautions and instructions in this manual to ensure safety of persons, equipment, and satisfactory life of the trailer. Always use an adequate tow vehicle and hitch. If the vehicle or hitch is not properly selected and matched to the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of your trailer, you can cause an accident that could lead to death or serious injury. If you already have a tow vehicle, know your vehicle tow rating and make certain the trailer’s rated capacity is less than or equal to the tow vehicle’s rated towing capacity. If you already have (or plan to buy) a trailer, make certain that the tow rating of the tow vehicle is equal to or greater than that of the trailer. The trailer VIN tag contains the critical safetyinformation for the use of your trailer. Again, be sure your hitch and tow vehicle are rated for the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of your trailer. WARNING Proper selection and condition of the coupler and hitch are essential to safely towing your trailer. A loss of coupling may result in death or serious injury. • Be sure the hitch load rating is equal to or greater than the load rating of the coupler. • Be sure the hitch size matches the coupler size. • Observe the hitch for wear, corrosion and cracks before coupling. Replace worn, corroded or cracked hitch components before coupling the trailer to the tow vehicle. • Be sure the hitch components are tight before coupling the trailer to the tow vehicle. WARNING An improperly coupled trailer can result in death or serious injury. DO NOT move the trailer until: • The coupler is secured and locked to hitch. • The safety chains are secured to the tow vehicle. • The trailer jack(s) are fully retracted. DO NOT tow the trailer on the road until: • Tires and wheels are checked. • The trailer brakes are checked. • The breakaway switch is connected to the tow vehicle. • The load is secured to the trailer. • The trailer lights are connected and checked. WARNING Use of a hitch with a load rating less than the load rating of the trailer can result in loss of control and may lead to death or serious injury. Use of a tow vehicle with a towing capacity less than the load rating of the trailer can result in loss of control, and may lead to death or serious injury. Be sure your hitch and tow vehicle are rated for the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of your trailer. page 46 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Trailer guidelines INoperaBle BraKeS, lIghtS or mIrrorS Be sure that the brakes and all of the lights on your trailer are functioning properly before towing your trailer. Check the trailer taillights by turning on your tow vehicle headlights. Check the trailer brake lights by having someone step on the tow vehicle brake pedal while you look at trailer lights. Do the same thing to check the turn signal lights. See Trailer Wiring Diagram section in this manual. Standard mirrors usually do not provide adequate visibility for viewing traffic to the sides and rear of a towed trailer. You must provide mirrors that allow you to safely observe approaching traffic. WARNING Improper electrical connection between the tow vehicle and the trailer will result in inoperable lights and can lead to collision. Before each tow, check that the tail lights, brake lights and turn signals work. traIler toWINg tIpS Driving a vehicle with a trailer in tow is vastly different from driving the same vehicle without a trailer in tow. Acceleration, maneuverability and braking are all diminished with a trailer in tow. It takes longer to get up to speed, you need more room to turn and pass, and more distance to stop when towing a trailer. You will need to spend time adjusting to the different feel and maneuverability of the tow vehicle with a loaded trailer. Because of the significant differences in all aspects of maneuverability when towing a trailer, the hazards and risks of injury are also much greater than when driving without a trailer. You are responsible for keeping your vehicle and trailer in control, and for all the damage that is caused if you lose control of your vehicle and trailer. As you did when learning to drive an automobile, find an open area with little or no traffic for your first practice trailering. Of course, before you start towing the trailer, you must follow all of the instructions for inspection, testing, loading and coupling. Also, before you start towing, adjust the mirrors so you can see the trailer as well as the area to the rear of it. Drive slowly at first, 5 mph or so, and turn the wheel to get the feel of how the tow vehicle and trailer combination responds. Next, make some right and left hand turns. Watch in your side mirrors to see how the trailer follows the tow vehicle. Turning with a trailer attached requires more room. Stop the rig a few times from speeds no greater than 10 mph. If your trailer is equipped with brakes, try using different combinations of trailer brake and tow vehicle brake. Note the effect that the trailer brakes have when they are the only brakes used. When properly adjusted, the trailer brakes will come on just before the tow vehicle brakes. It will take practice to learn how to back up a tow vehicle with a trailer attached. Take it slow. Before backing up, get out of the tow vehicle and look behind the trailer to make sure that there are no obstacles. Some drivers place their hands at the bottom of the steering wheel, and while the tow vehicle is in reverse, “think” of the hands as being on the top of the wheel. When the hands move to the right (counterclockwise, as you would do to turn the tow vehicle to the left when moving forward), the rear of the trailer moves to the right. Conversely, rotating the steering wheel clockwise with your hands at the bottom of the wheel will move the rear of the trailer to the left while backing up. If you are towing a bumper hitch rig, be careful not to allow the trailer to turn too much because it will hit the rear of the tow vehicle. To straighten the rig, either pull forward or turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction. traIler vIN tag Figure A below is a sample of the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) Tag which is typically located on the left front of the trailer. See Figure B for location. Figure A. Vehicle VIN Tag DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) — page 47 Trailer guidelines VI N TA G VIN TAG Figure B. Typical VIN Tag Location To determine the “empty” or “net” weight of your trailer, weigh it on an axle scale. To find the weight of the trailer using an axle scale, you must know the axle weights of your tow vehicle without the trailer coupled. Some of the trailer weight will be transferred from the trailer to the tow vehicle axles, and an axle scale weighs all axles, including the tow vehicle axles. toW vehICle The towing hitch attached to your tow vehicle must have a capacity equal to or greater than the load rating of the trailer you intend to tow. The hitch capacity must also be matched to the tow vehicle capacity. Your vehicle dealer can provide and install the proper hitch on your tow vehicle. The trailer VIN Tag contains the following critical safety information for the use of your trailer. SUSpeNSIoN SYStem GAWR: The maximum gross weight that an axle cansupport. It is the lowest of axle, wheel, or tire rating. Sway bars, shock absorbers, heavy duty springs, heavy duty tires and other suspension components may be required to sufficiently tow the trailer and pump. Usually, the tire or wheel rating is lower than the axle rating, and determines GAWR. gvWr: The maximum allowable gross weight of the trailer and its contents. The gross weight of the trailer includes the weight of the trailer and all of the items within it. GVWR is sometimes referred to as GTWR (Gross Trailer Weight Rating), or MGTW (Maximum Gross Trailer Weight). GVWR, GTWR and MGTW are all the same rating. The sum total of the GAWR for all trailer axles may be less than the GVWR for the trailer, because some of the trailer load is to be carried by the tow vehicle, rather than by the trailer axle(s). The total weight of the cargo and trailer must not exceed the GVWR, and the load on an axle must not exceed its GAWR. BraKe CoNtroller For trailers equipped with electric brakes, the electric brake controller is part of the tow vehicle and is essential in the operation of the electric brakes on the trailer. The brake controller is not the same as the safety breakaway brake system that may be equipped on the trailer. SIDe vIeW mIrrorS PSIC: The tire pressure (psi) measured when cold. The size of the trailer that is being towed and your state law regulations determine the size of the mirrors. However, some states prohibit extended mirrors on a tow vehicle, except while a trailer is actually being towed. In this situation, detachable extended mirrors are necessary. Check with your dealer or the appropriate state agency for mirror requirements. vIN: The Vehicle Identification Number. heavY DUtY FlaSher emptY WeIght: Some information that comes with the trailer (such as the Manufacturer’s Statement of Origin) is not a reliable source for “empty” or “net” weight. The shipping documents list average or standard weights and your trailer may be equipped with options. A Heavy Duty Flasher is an electrical component that may be required when your trailer turn signal lights are attached to the tow vehicle flasher circuit. eleCtrICal CoNNeCtor An Electrical Connector connects the light and brake systems on the trailer to the light and brake controls on the towing vehicle. page 48 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Trailer guidelines emergeNCY FlareS aND trIaNgle reFleCtorS Ball hItCh CoUpler It is wise to carry these warning devices even if you are not towing a trailer. It is particularly important to have these when towing a trailer because the hazard flashers of your towing vehicle will not operate for as long a period of time when the battery is running both the trailer lights and tow vehicle lights. A ball hitch coupler (Figure C) connects to a ball that is located on or under the rear bumper of tow vehicle. This system of coupling a trailer to a tow vehicle is sometimes referred to as “bumper pull.” SAFETY CHAINS If the coupler connection comes loose, the safety chains can keep the trailer attached to the tow vehicle. With properly rigged safety chains, it is possible to keep the tongue of the trailer from digging into the road pavement, even if the coupler-to-hitch connection comes apart. A ball hitch trailer may be fitted with a tongue jack that can raise and lower the coupler. The tongue jack is mounted to the A-frame (front or tongue) part of the trailer. By rotating the jack handle clockwise, the jack will extend and raise the tongue of the trailer. traIler lIghtINg aND BraKINg CoNNeCtor A device that connects electrical power from the tow vehicle to the trailer. Electricity is used to turn on brake lights, running lights, and turn signals as required. In addition, if your trailer has a separate braking system, the electrical connector will also supply power to the brakes from the tow vehicle. BreaKaWaY SYStem If the trailer coupler connection comes loose, the breakaway system can actuate emergency hydraulic brakes depending on the type of actuator on the trailer. The breakaway cable must be rigged to the tow vehicle with appropriate slack that will activate the system if the coupler connection comes loose. JACKSTAND A device on the trailer that is used to raise and lower the coupler. The jack is sometimes called the “landing gear” or the “tongue jack”. CoUpler tYpeS Two types of coupler used wit the trailer are discussed below. Ball Hitch Coupler Pintel Eye Coupler Figure C. Ball Hitch Coupler Before each tow, coat the ball with a thin layer of automotive bearing grease to reduce wear and ensure proper operation. Check the locking device that secures the coupler to the ball for proper operation. If you see or feel evidence of wear, such as flat spots, deformations, pitting or corrosion, on the ball or coupler, immediately have your dealer inspect them to determine the proper action to prevent possible failure of the ball and coupler system. All bent or broken coupler parts must be replaced before towing the trailer. The coupler handle lever must be able to rotate freely and automatically snap into the latched position. Oil the pivot points, sliding surfaces, and spring ends with SAE 30W motor oil. Keep the ball socket and latch mechanism clean. Dirt or contamination can prevent proper operation of the latching mechanism. The load rating of the coupler and the necessary ball size are listed on the trailer tongue. You must provide a hitch and ball for your tow vehicle where the load rating of the hitch and ball is equal to or greater than that of your trailer. Also, the ball size must be the same as the coupler size.

IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE HITCH BALL BE OF THE SAME SIZE AS THE COUPLER. Coupling the trailer to the tow vehicle (Ball Coupler) The ball size and load rating (capacity) are marked on the ball. Hitch capacity is marked on the hitch. WARNING Coupler-to-hitch mismatch can result in uncoupling, leading to death or serious injury. Be sure the LOAD RATING of the hitch ball is equal or greater than the load rating of the coupler. Be sure the SIZE of the hitch ball matches the size of the ball coupler. WARNING A worn, cracked or corroded hitch ball can fail while towing and may result in death or serious injury. Lubricate the hitch ball and the inside of the coupler with a thin layer of automotive bearing grease. Slowly back up the tow vehicle so that the hitch ball is near or aligned under the coupler. Using the jackstand at the front of trailer (tongue), turn the jackstand crank handle to raise the trailer. If the ball coupler does not line up with the hitch ball, adjust the position of the tow vehicle. Open the coupler locking mechanism. Ball couplers have a locking mechanism with an internal moving piece and an outside handle. In the open position, the coupler is able to drop fully onto the hitch ball. Lower the trailer (Figure D) until the coupler fully engages the hitch ball. 2-INCH TRAILER COUPLER TOW VEHICLE Before coupling trailer, inspect the hitch ball for wear, corrosion and cracks. Replace worn or damaged hitch ball. WARNING A loose hitchball nut can result in uncoupling, leading to death or serious injury. Be sure the hitch ball is tight to the hitch before coupling the trailer. Rock the ball to make sure it is tightened to the hitch, and visually check that the hitch ball nut is solid against the lock washer and hitch frame. Wipe the inside and outside of the coupler. Clean and visually inspect it for cracks and deformations. Feel the inside of the coupler for worn spots and pits. Be sure the coupler is secured tightly to the tongue of the trailer. All coupler fasteners must be visibly solid against the trailer frame. The bottom surface of the coupler must be above the top of the hitch ball. Use the tongue jackstand to support 2-INCH BALL Figure D. Ball Hitch Coupling Mechanism Engage the coupler locking mechanism. In the engaged position, the locking mechanism securely holds the coupler to the hitch ball. Insert a pin or lock through the hole in the locking mechanism. Be sure the coupler is all the way on the hitch ball and the locking mechanism is engaged. A properly engaged locking mechanism will allow the coupler to raise the rear of the tow vehicle. Using the trailer jackstand, verify that you can raise the rear of the tow vehicle by 1 inch after the coupler is locked to the hitch. Lower the trailer so that its entire tongue weight is held by the hitch. Raise the jackstand to a height where it will not interfere with the road. page 50 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Trailer guidelines Breakaway Brake System NOTICE Overloading can damage the tongue jack. DO NOT use the tongue jack to raise the tow vehicle more than one inch. If the coupler cannot be secured to the hitch ball, do not tow the trailer. Call your dealer for assistance. Lower the trailer so that its entire tongue weight is held by the hitch and continue retracting the jack to its fully retracted position. Attaching Safety Chain If the coupler or hitch fails, a properly connected and working breakaway brake system (Figure F) will apply the hydraulic brakes on the trailer. The safety chains will keep the tow vehicle attached and as the brakes are applied at the trailer’s axles, the trailer/tow vehicle combination will come to a controlled stop. Connect Cable to Tow Vehicle Breakaway Lever Connect Cable to Tow Vehicle Visually inspect the safety chains and hooks for wear or damage.

Refer to the wiring diagram shown in the trailer wiring diagram section of this manual. Before towing the trailer check for the following: A pintle eye coupler (Figure G) connects to a pintle-hook hitch that is located on or under the rear bumper of the tow vehicle. This system of coupling a trailer to a tow vehicle is sometimes referred to as a “lunette eye, tow ring or G.I. hitch.” Running lights (turn on tow vehicle headlights). Brake Lights (step on tow vehicle brake pedal). Backup Lights (place tow vehicle gear shift in reverse). Turn Signals (activate tow vehicle directional signal lever). WARNING Improper electrical connection between the tow vehicle and the trailer will result in inoperable lights and electric brakes, and can lead to collision. Before each tow: • Check that the taillights, brake lights and turn signals work. • Check that the electric brakes work by operating the brake controller inside the tow vehicle. Uncoupling the Ball hitch Follow these steps to uncouple ball hitch from tow vehicle: Block trailer tires to prevent the trailer from rolling, before jacking the trailer up. Disconnect the electrical connector. Disconnect the breakaway brake switch cable. Promptly replace the pullpin in the switchbox. Before extending jackstand, make certain the ground surface below the jackstand foot will support the tongue load. Rotate the jackstand handle (or crank) clockwise. This will slowly extend the jack and transfer the weight of the trailer tongue to the jack. Figure G. Pintle Hitch Coupler A pintle hitch trailer may be fitted with a tongue jackstand that can raise and lower the coupler. The tongue jack is mounted to the A-frame (front or tongue) part of the trailer. By rotating the jack handle clockwise, the jack will extend and raise the tongue of the trailer. The load rating of the coupler and the necessary pintle hitch size are listed on the trailer tongue. You must provide a pintle hitch and pintle coupler for your tow vehicle, where the load rating of the pintle hitch and pintle coupler is equal to or greater than that of your trailer. Also, the pintle hitch size must be the same as the pintle coupler size. If the hitch is too small, too large, underrated, loose or worn, the trailer can come loose from the tow vehicle, and may cause death or serious injury. Pintle Coupler and Pintle Hook Before each tow, check the locking device that secures the coupler to the pintle hook assembly. The pintle hook lever must be able to operate freely and automatically snap into place into the latched position. Lightly oil the pivot points and sliding surfaces with SAE30W motor oil to prevent rust and help ensure proper operation of the latching mechanism. If you see or feel evidence of wear, such as flat spots, deformations, pitting or corrosion, on the pintle hook or coupler, immediately have your dealer inspect them to determine the proper action to prevent possible failure of page 52 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Trailer guidelines the ball andcoupler system. All bent or broken coupler parts must be replaced before towing the trailer. THE TOW VEHICLE, PINTLE HITCH AND PINTLE COUPLER MUST HAVE A RATED TOWING CAPACITY EQUAL TO OR GREATER THAN THE TRAILER Gross vehicle Weight rating (gvWr). IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE PINTLE HITCH BE OF THE SAME SIZE AS THE PINTLE COUPLER. The coupler size and load rating (capacity) are marked on the coupler. Hitch capacity is marked on the hitch. WARNING A defective pintle hitch not properly fastened can result in uncoupling, leading to death or serious injury. Be sure the pintle hook is securly tighten to the tow vehicle before coupling the trailer. Coupling trailer to tow vehicle (pintle Coupler) Slowly back up the tow vehicle so that the pintle hitch hook is near or aligned under the pintle eye ring coupler.

Using the trailer jack, test to see that you can raise the rear of the tow vehicle by1-inch after the coupler is locked to the hitch. Lower the trailer so that its entire tongue weight is held by the hitch. Raise the jackstand to a height where it will not interfere with the road. DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) — page 53 Trailer guidelines TIRE SAFETY Unsafe tires, lug Nuts or Wheels Trailer tires and wheels are more likely to fail than car tires and wheels because they carry a heavier load. Therefore, it is essential to inspect the trailer tires before each tow. If a tire has a bald spot, bulge, cuts, is showing any cords, or is cracked, replace the tire before towing. If a tire has uneven tread wear, take the trailer to a dealer service center for diagnosis. Uneven tread wear can be caused by tire imbalance, axle misalignment or incorrect inflation. Tires with too little tread will not provide adequate tracking on wet roadways and can result in loss of control, leading to death or serious injury. Improper tire pressure causes an unstable trailer and can result in a tire blowout and loss of control. Therefore, before each tow you must also check the tire pressure. Tire pressure must be checked when tires are cold. Allow 3 hours cool-down after driving as much as 1 mile at 40 mph before checking tire pressure. Trailer tires will be inflated to higher pressures than passenger vehicle tires. Since trailer wheels and lug nuts (or bolts) are subjected to greater side loads than automobile wheels, they are more prone to loosen. Before each tow, check to make sure they are tight. The proper tightness (torque) for lug nuts is listed in the lug nut tightening section of this manual. Use a torque wrench to tighten the lug nuts. If you do not have a torque wrench, use a lug wrench (from your tow vehicle) and tighten the nuts as much as you can. Then have a service garage or trailer dealer tighten the lug nuts to the proper torque. WARNING Metal creep between the wheel rim and lug nuts will cause rim to loosen and could result in a wheel coming off, leading to death or serious injury. Lug nuts are also prone to loosen after first being assembled. When driving a new trailer (or after wheels have been remounted), check to make sure they are tight after the first 10, 25 and 50 miles of driving and before each tow thereafter. Failure to perform this check can result in a wheel parting from the trailer and a crash, leading to death or serious injury. WARNING Lug nuts are prone to loosen after initial installation, which can lead to death or serious injury. Check lug nuts for tightness on a new trailer or when wheel(s) have been remounted after the first 10, 25 and 50 miles of driving. WARNING Improper lug nut torque can cause a wheel parting from the trailer, leading to death or serious injury. Be sure lug nuts are tight before each tow. WARNING Improper tire pressure can result in a blowout and loss of control, which can lead to death or serious injury. Be sure tires are inflated to pressure indicated on side wall before towing trailer. Determining load limit of trailer Determining the load limits of a trailer includes more than understanding the load limits of the tires alone. On all trailers there is a Federal certification/VIN label that is located on the forward half of the left (road) side of the unit. This certification/VIN label will indicate the trailer’s Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). This is the most weight the fully loaded trailer can weigh. It will also provide the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). This is the most a the axle can weigh. Tighten lug nuts before each tow. page 54 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Trailer guidelines There is a vehicle placard (Figure I) located in the same location as the certification label described above. This placard provides tire and loading information. In addition, this placard will show a statement regarding maximum cargo capacity. TIRE AND LOADING INFORMATION The weight of cargo should never exceed XXX kg. Or XXX lbs. TIRE FRONT REAR SPARE SIZE COLD TIRE PRESSURE SEE OWNER’S MANUAL FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Figure I. Trailer Tire Placard If additional work items (hoses, tools, clamps etc.) are going to be added to the trailer, be sure they are distributed evenly to prevent overloading front to back and side to side. Heavy items should be placed low and as close to the axle positions as reasonable. Too many items on one side may overload a tire. Excessive loads and/or underinflation cause tire overloading and, as a result, abnormal tire flexing occurs. This situation can generate an excessive amount of heat within the tire. Excessive heat may lead to tire failure. It is the air pressure that enables a tire to support the load, so proper inflation is critical. The proper air pressure may be found on the certification/VIN label and/or on the Tire and Loading Information placard. This value should never exceed the maximum cold inflation pressure stamped on the tire. Perform the following steps to determine the load limit of your trailer. Step 1. Locate the statement, “The weight of cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs.,” on your vehicle’s Tire and Loading Information placard (Figure I). This value equals the available amount of equipment load capacity. Step 2. Determine the weight of the equipment being loaded on the tow vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available equipment load capacity. The trailer’s Tire Information Placard is attached adjacent to or near the trailer’s VIN (Certification) label at the left front of the trailer (See Figure I). Determining load limit of tow vehicle Step 1. Locate the statement, “The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX lbs.,” on your vehicle’s placard. Step 2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers who will be riding in your vehicle. Step 3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kilograms or XXX pounds. Step 4. The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage capacity. For example, if the “XXX” amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb. passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage capacity is 650 lbs. (1400-750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.). Step 5. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage capacity calculated in Step 4. If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Consult the tow vehicle’s manual to determine how this weight transfer reduces the available cargo and luggage capacity of your vehicle. Studies of tire safety show that maintaining proper tire pressure, observing tire and vehicle load limits (not carrying more weight in your vehicle than your tires or vehicle can safely handle), avoiding road hazards and inspecting tires for cuts, slashes and other irregularities are the most important things you can do to avoid tire failure, such as tread separation or blowout and flat tires. These actions, along with other care and maintenance activities, can also: Improve vehicle handling. Help protect you and others from avoidable breakdowns and accidents. Improve fuel economy. Increase the tire life. DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) — page 55 Trailer guidelines Use the information contained in this section to make tire safety a regular part of your vehicle maintenance routine. Recognize that the time you spend is minimal compared with the inconvenience and safety consequences of a flat tire or other tire failure. tIre FUNDameNtalS Federal law requires tire manufacturers to place standardized information on the sidewall of all tires (Figure J). This information identifies and describes the fundamental characteristics of the tire and also provides a tire identification number for safety standard certification and in case of a recall. Figure J. Standard Tire Sidewall Information P: The “P” indicates the tire is for passenger vehicles. Next number: This three-digit number gives the width in millimeters of the tire from sidewall edge to sidewall edge. In general, the larger the number, the wider the tire. Next number: This two-digit number, known as the aspect ratio, gives the tire’s ratio of height to width. Numbers of 70 or lower indicate a short sidewall for improved steering response and better overall handling on dry pavement. P: The “R” stands for radial. Radial ply construction of tires has been the industry standard for the past 20 years. Next number: This two-digit number is the wheel or rim diameter in inches. If you change your wheel size, you will have to purchase new tires to match the new wheel diameter. Next number: This two- or three-digit number is the tire’s load index. It is a measurement of how much weight each tire can support. You may find this information in your owner’s manual. If not, contact a local tire dealer. Note: You may not find this information on all tires because it is not required by law. m+S: The “M+S” or “M/S” indicates that the tire has some mud and snow capability. Most radial tires have these markings; hence, they have some mud and snow capability. Speed Rating: The speed rating denotes the speed at which a tire is designed to be driven for extended periods of time. The ratings range from 99 miles per hour (mph) to 186 mph. These ratings are listed in Table A. Note: You may not find this information on all tires because it is not required by law. table a. Speed Rating letter rating Speed Rating Q 99 mph R 106 mph S 112 mph T 118 mph U 124 mph H 130 mph V 149 mph W 168* mph Y 186* mph U.S. Dot tire Identification Number: This begins with the letters “DOT” and indicates that the tire meets all federal standards. The next two numbers or letters are the plant code where it was manufactured, and the last four numbers represent the week and year the tire was built. For example, the numbers 3197 means the 31st week of 1997. The other numbers are marketing codes used at the manufacturer’s discretion. This information is used to contact consumers if a tire defect requires a recall. tire ply Composition and materials Used: The number of plies indicates the number of layers of rubber-coated fabric in the tire. In general, the greater the number of plies, the more weight a tire can support. Tire manufacturers also must indicate the materials in the tire, which include steel, nylon, polyester, and others. maximum load rating: This number indicates the maximum load in kilograms and pounds that can be carried by the tire. maximum permissible Inflation pressure: This number is the greatest amount of air pressure that should ever be put in the tire under normal driving conditions. page 56 — DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) Trailer guidelines Uniform tire Quality grading Standards (UtQgS) Treadwear Number: This number indicates the tire’s wear rate. The higher the treadwear number is, the longer it should take for the tread to wear down. For example, a tire graded 400 should last twice as long as a tire graded 200. traction letter: This letter indicates a tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement. A higher graded tire should allow you to stop your car on wet roads in a shorter distance than a tire with a lower grade. Traction is graded from highest to lowest as “AA”,”A”, “B”, and “C”. temperature letter: This letter indicates a tire’s resistance to heat. The temperature grade is for a tire that is inflated properly and not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinflation or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat build-up and possible tire failure. From highest to lowest, a tire’s resistance to heat is graded as “A”, “B”, or “C”. Refer to Figure K for additional tire information for light trucks. load range: This information identifies the tire’s loadcarrying capabilities and its inflation limits. Tire Safety Tips Slow down if you have to go over a pothole or other object in the road. DO NOT run over curbs or other foreign objects in the roadway, and try not to strike the curb when parking. Check tire inflation pressure weekly during use to insure the maximum tire life and tread wear. DO NOT bleed air from tires when they are hot. Inspect tires for uneven wear patterns on the tread, cracks, foreign objects, or other signs of wear or trauma. Remove bits of glass and foreign objects wedged in the tread. Make sure your tire valves have valve caps. alWaYS check tire pressure on tow vehicle and trailer before towing. Check tire pressure at least once a month. DO NOT overload tow vehicle. Check the tire information and loading placard for safe allowable tire loading conditions. Tire Repair Tires for light trucks have other markings besides those found on the sidewalls of passenger tires. The proper repair of a punctured tire requires a plug for the hole and a patch for the area inside the tire that surrounds the puncture hole. Punctures through the tread can be repaired if they are not too large, but punctures to the sidewall should not be repaired. Tires must be removed from the rim to be properly inspected before being plugged and patched. lt: The “LT” indicates the tire is for light trucks or trailers. Replacing Worn or Damaged Tires Figure K. UTQGS Tire Information ST: An “ST” is an indication the tire is for trailer use only. max. load Dual kg (lbs) at kPa (psi) Cold: This information indicates the maximum load and tire pressure when the tire is used as a dual, that is, when four tires are put on each rear axle (a total of six or more tires on the vehicle). max. load Single kg (lbs) at kPa (psi) Cold: This information indicates the maximum load and tire pressure when the tire is used as a single. Replace the tire before towing the trailer if the tire treads have less than 1/16 inch depth or the telltale bands are visible. Check inflation pressure weekly during use to insure the maximum tire life and tread wear. A bubble, cut or bulge in a side wall can result in a tire blowout. Inspect both side walls of each tire for any bubble, cut or bulge; and replace a damaged tire before towing the trailer. DCA125USI3CAN 60 hz Generator • operation and parts manual — rev. #3 (12/19/14) — page 57 Trailer guidelines Table B below will help pinpoint the causes and solutions of tire wear problems. table B. Tire Wear Troubleshooting Wear Pattern Cause Solution Center Wear Over inflation. Adjust pressure to particular load per tire manufacturer. Edge Wear Under inflation. Adjust pressure to particular load per tire manufacturer. Side Wear Loss of camber or overloading. Make sure load does not exceed axle rating. Align wheels. Toe Wear Incorrect toe-in. Align wheels. Cupping Out-of-balance. Check bearing adjustment and balance tires. Wheel lockup and tire skidding. Avoid sudden stops when possible and adjust brakes. Flat Spots WARNING ALWAYS wear safety glasses when removing or installing force fitted parts. DO NOT attempt to repair or modify a wheel. DO NOT install an inner-tube to correct a leak through through the rim. If the rim is cracked, the air pressure in the inner tube may cause pieces of the rim to explode (break off) with great force and cause serious eye or bodily injury. NOTICE Never use an pneumatic air gun to tighten wheel lug nuts. Over-tightening lug nuts will result in breaking the studs or permanently deforming the mounting stud holes in the wheels. WARNING Lug nuts are prone to loosen after initial installation, which can lead to death or serious injury. Check all wheel lug nuts periodically. lug Nut torque requirements It is extremely important to apply and maintain proper wheel mounting torque on the trailer. Be sure to use only the fasteners matched to the cone angle of the wheel. Proper procedure for attachment of the wheels is as follows: 1. Start all wheel lug nuts by hand. 2. Torque all lug nuts in sequence. See Figure L. DO NOT torque the wheel lug nuts all the way down. Tighten each lug nut in 3 separate passes as defined by Table C. 3. Check to see if the lug nuts are tight after the first 10, 25 and 50 miles of driving and before each tow thereafter Wheel Rims If the trailer has been struck, or impacted, on or near the wheels, or if the trailer has struck a curb, inspect the rims for damage (i.e. being out of round); and replace any damaged wheel. Inspect the wheels for damage every year, even if no obvious impact has occurred. Wheels, Bearings and lug Nuts A loose, worn or damaged wheel bearing is the most common cause of brakes that grab. To check wheel bearings, jack trailer and check wheels for side-to-side looseness. If the wheels are loose, or spin with a wobble, the bearings must be serviced or replaced. Check inflation pressure weekly during use to insure the maximum tire life and tread wear. Most trailer axles are built with sealed bearings that are not serviceable. Sealed bearings must be replaced as complete units. Figure L.
